Joensuu Sports Afternoon 7.10.

The Sports Afternoon is a biannual event organised by the Student Union. The purpose of the Sports Afternoon is to give our students an opportunity to try new sports for a very affordable price (or for free) and to get everyone moving at least for one afternoon per semester. There will be no teaching after 12.15pm so everyone is able to take part – and we recommend you do! There is a great choice of activities, the list of which is below. Once you have chosen what you would like to do, please remember to book yourself a place (instructions on how to book next to each activity description). Some activities must be booked by 12pm on Friday 3.10. and we recommend you book as soon as possible to avoid disappointment – these activities tend to fill up fast.

After you have done your exercise you can reward yourself at the AFTERPARTIES at Kerubi and Ilona. Both clubs will be heaving with people, live music and fantastic atmosphere from 10pm to 4am. One ticket (5e) gives you admission to both of these parties so you cruise around and see which party you prefer! Tickets are sold at the Student Union office until the 6.10.2014. There are a limited number of tickets available to these parties, so be quick to get yours.

The Sports Afternoon and the afterparties are for everyone to enjoy and we really hope to see you at some of the activities!

All students are insuranced by OLL (the Finnish Student Sports Federation). The insurance doesn’t cover bouldering and or wall climbing.

Guided squash and racketball
Welcome to play squash and racketball to Kuntokeidas. Joensuu squash club offers free guidance and tips for both sports. Squash is a fast moving ball game. Getting started is easy, you only need shoes and racket. Racketball is easier way to start playing. Rackets and shoes can be rented from Kuntokeidas. Book your court in advance.
